First time swim! ☀️🌊💦

Took this guy to the pool for the first time ever!! At first he was scared to get in!! Only wanted to get his feet wet! And if we tried to go any deeper he would scream aaahhhhhh!! So we took it slow–first we wet his feet, then his hands, and he eventually took the first step down! The water was up to his calves now you guys, so he was content for a while 😂😂

We eventually were able to get him off the stairs and into the pool, but the water could not go above his waist! Even when the water was at his waist he could touch the water with his hands and loved to splash splash 💦💦

We will try again in a couple of days, and give the pool water some time to warm up! It was a bit cold…

So yes of course we brought a swim bag, and all I had in there was some towels, swim diapers, dry clothes, snacks, formula and water. I feel pretty comfortable with this list because I want to travel light. After all I still have to carry him as well!!

We both got our swim gear at Target (😍) and we thought we got everything, but I forgot to get him a swim float! Ahh!! Luckily the pool had an extra one, that’s why he’s wearing a Dora life jacket. We will definitely have to go get a swim float for next time!

I love the summer time!! More time outside, less time inside, I love soaking up the sun!! What’s in your swim bag??! Did I miss anything? Any tips to give for mommy and baby swim trips?
